The Soledad Brother Book Analysis

In the book of the Soledad Brother talked about a guy name George Jackson who went to jail for stealing $70 dollars from a gas station. The Soledad Brother book is kind of emotional because he would say that there were two schools and the school that he didn 't go to was pretty much for white kids they had everything like a playground and the school that he went to didn 't have a playground at all. he got convicted for things he didn 't do with some friends. He escaped because white people thought all black people look the same.

i belief that because my uncle was in a school were their was only black people and a few brown people and they were treated different my uncle and his friends would fight a lot with black people they felt more left out.

In pages 313-330 In August 9,1970 George wrote a letter to Joan and a text that i found interesting was “ I want people to wonder at what forces created him, terrible, vindictive, cold, clam man-child, courage in one hand, the machine gun in the other, scourage of the unrighteous- “an ox for the people to ride on!!” In my opinion this text is trying to tell me that sounds like he is going to war but in reality he just wants to be free and the of for the people to ride on sounds like a leader because it was telling us early in the book about slavery and how they have to do everything the owner tells them to do and that came out through my mind when i read “An a ox for the people to ride on.
